Trolleybuses in Bournemouth ceased operating 50 years ago (20 April 1969). This weekend, it is planned that three of the surviving Bournemouth trolleybuses will be operating for visitors to ride on and photograph.

It is also planned that a couple of visiting Bournemouth area motorbuses will travel to the Trolleybus Museum to be on display and to be operated alongside the town's trolleybuses, and even used for the free Isle of Axholme tours each day and for the free Doncaster bus services on Sunday and Monday.
